A while back I was messing around with an idea of a large carp crankbait. This is What I came up with, 15"inches at 15.8 oz wire through construction, 1/4"inch thick lip.

Thanks, Although I did not water test this depending on the amount of line out it should run around 10,12 feet.

This is two halves of red cedar joined together. Really made laying out the weight and wire much easier on this size bait.
Thanks Brian
little one

I had to have an emergency gall bladder removal last Thursday and just went back to work yesterday. Slipped down stairs to tinker last night but still not feeling up to thechallenge and decided to see if I feel ok this weekend to give it another go. I had just completed a mold of nice steelhead. I hope to see if I can produce the first body by Sunday night. Keep the great work!
